I love having a drunk rider in my car
because when they’re in my car,
it means they’re not driving themselves home.
This is safer for everyone and I’m making money.
If you don’t like driving drunk people,
stop Ubering around 10:30 or 11:00 at night.
You’ll still get riders, who have been drinking,
but they won’t be totally drunk.
For most trips that aren’t pool,
I’ll ask the rider, if they have a preferred route
and follow their directions.
However, a drunk rider may pass out on the way,
or take me in a totally wrong direction.
On busy Friday and Saturday nights
or any time people have been partying,
I maintain a positive attitude
so the trip goes smoothly.
I find being lighthearted is really helpful
because my rider just wants to have a good time.
I also confirm the address, before I start driving.
That way I can use my GPS to get us there.
If my rider falls asleep, it’s not a problem.
When I stop the car and the rider wakes up,
I can say: hey, we made it.
And everything’s good.
